Redefining “Standardized Extract” and Raising the Scientific Bar

Natreon, Inc. develops novel compounds extracted from the traditional botanicals of ayurvedic medicine and has created a broad portfolio of products and technologies with compelling intellectual property. The ancient practice of ayurvedic medicine is based on balance and these fundamental and enlightened philosophies of over 20 centuries would serve us well today. The growing interest in natural products and traditional medicine practices is driving the need for more research and scientific validation. At the forefront of this movement to bring potent traditional therapies into a modern context, Natreon is developing and marketing pharmaceutical-quality nutraceuticals to a global marketplace. With a deep commitment to research, the company has an extensive research center in Kolkata, India with a full-time research and development team including 10 PhD researchers and multiple PhD candidates. Since Natreon was established in 1998, the company has redefined the meaning of “standardized extract” and raised the bar for scientific validation and safety studies for natural ingredients.

The impressive achievements of Natreon’s research include the identification of the essential bioactive constituents of natural products, as well as the development of analytical methodology for measuring these constituents. Natreon has developed manufacturing techniques that enable optimal levels of bioactive ingredients for use by dietary supplement, health food, beverage and cosmetic industries. Also, the company’s research meets the highest standards of excellence in its innovative formulation of proprietary blends, based on unique combinations of standardized extracts. With this, Natreon has redefined the meaning of “standardized extract” and raised its status to a scientific discipline. Natreon has honed an important expertise in the production of active principles, derivatives, extracts and ingredients, all of which are natural.

Natreon R&D mission is to establish the molecular basis of action of herbal products according to the tenents of modern science; develop human resources through training and mentoring; and serve the needs of the global marketplace by creating standardized ingredients of natural origin.
